It's Google's decision to enforce it worldwide. I'm not in Europe, and most of my apps' users were not in Europe.

  It's really hard to know that for sure. Why risk antitrust lawsuits or European fines because you tried to do the bare minimum?

    Do you think I somehow personally chose where my apps would be more popular or less popular? If they wanted to cut off my apps in only European regions due to European regs it would be disappointing but understandable.

      > disappointing but understandable. It's amazing to me that there are some people that will go to these lengths to defend the profits of one of the largest corporations in the world. At no point does it even occur to you that Google are already bending you over a table with their cut, and you're already white knighting for them even in a completely hypothetical situation. Do you have very strong investments on Google? Otherwise, I really can't explain why an entrepreneur would ever think the way you do.

        I agree with you, but in my particular case there was nothing for Google to take a cut of. I never sold anything or even took donations.

          Oh, my bad For some reason I thought you sold an app or a service. Serves me well for assuming, my apologies.

  Are you sure Europe wont sue you for europeans using it with a VON or europeans outside europe using it? Because I am not sure they wouldn't sue.
